On the seventh day in the inn, even someone as calm as Lian Jiuye started to get a little anxious.

  Song Chuayi spent his days leisurely feeding white birds, playing chess alone and reading books, his life seemed carefree.

  "Hmm, you think the ice on the river can be how thick these days? Can it hold a person's weight?" Song Chu looked at Ji Yu who was standing by the window like a statue.

  The river is extremely wide, and was originally built during the summer when the water level was abundant. The surface is almost level with the water surface. However, the builder was from the State of Lu, who did not know that the river's water level varies greatly between winter and summer. During dry winters, the water level can drop by as much as five or six feet, allowing a person to walk through it.

  Ji Yu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately understood her meaning. For several days, Handan had been colder than ever before. If the river outside Wangcheng were to freeze over with a thick layer of ice, would Prince Fan's side choose to sneak into the city from the river?

  "It's possible today" Ji Yu Dao looked at the weather and thought that it might clear up, if they didn't do it today, they probably wouldn't have another chance.

  Although the people in the city also wanted to defend against the invasion of the river, there were no high and strong city walls there, relatively speaking, it was easier to break through and attack from both sides, and the possibility of breaking the city was higher.

  It is worth noting that Handan, as one of the most prosperous cities in the late Spring and Autumn period, its city wall was far higher than ordinary cities. If 60,000 soldiers defended it to the death, let alone 100,000 people attacking the city, even if there were 200,000, they could not take it down for three to five months

  That's why Prince Fan's side, despite having a numerical advantage, has been slow to attack the city.

  Can't find a way to break through, hard attack can only let soldiers die in vain

  Ji Yu's anxious moment dissipated, and he also felt that although the current timing was not ideal, it had already reached a point where they could no longer delay attacking Du Cheng. Otherwise, if they lost control of Du Cheng or dragged out the battle for too long, both outcomes would be extremely unfavorable to their situation.

  At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, one rolled over on the belly of a white blade and asked Ji Yu Dao, "How is your mood?"

  "Ji Yu Dao 'still locked himself in the house and didn't say a word, I suppose his mood can't be good'"

  "This kid has a heart of a daughter, still so timid?" Song Chu said disdainfully.

  "I think it's because Mr. changed his voice so easily, there's some discontent in his heart" Ji Yu still pierced the heart with one sentence

  Outside, as the sky gradually darkened, several people gathered together after finishing their lunch, waiting for news.

  Ji Bian had become quite familiar with several guards over the past few days. Firstly, he was straightforward and didn't have many tricks up his sleeve; secondly, he was generous with his spending, often using gold coins that those people rarely saw, let alone used. As a result, when Ji Bian asked them about outside matters, they would tell him everything without hesitation. The higher-ups had only instructed them not to let the guards run wild everywhere, but hadn't said anything about not chatting with them. After all, it wasn't like those things were secrets that could be exchanged for gold coins or anything.

  "Master!" Ji Bian rushed in hastily, his face filled with uncontrollable joy. "Hey! Master's prediction was spot on, it really is going to be a fight!"

  "You're so happy and carefree, but if the people of Zhao saw you, they'd probably fight to the death with you." Song Chu held his tea cup and asked, "How did they know it was going to come to blows?"

  "I heard that Lord Fan has already deployed the six armies to the lower reaches of the Zhe River at dawn today," said Ji Bian.

  Song nodded slightly, "Is there any other news?"

  "Exactly!" Ji Bian's smile grew even brighter, "I also heard that the young master Ke, whose pen name is Yi Lou..."

  Song Chu's hand trembled slightly, and the hot water splashed onto her wrist. She put down the teacup and asked immediately, "Really? Wasn't Master Ke in Zhao State before?"

  Beside him, playing Go alone, Li Yuzhen slightly raised his eyes and looked at Song Chuyi.

  Ji Bian nodded, "Yes, I heard that it was only half a month ago that he was brought back from Wei State by Young Master Fan."

  From Wei State... At the beginning of Song Dynasty, many things flashed through her mind. She was impersonating a Zhao State noble to look for Zhao Yi Lou, but unexpectedly someone was really looking for him, did this mean that Wei State didn't suspect anything about this matter?

  It must be that the King of Wei has gone all out to help Gongzi Fan find someone! Otherwise, how could they have found him in such a short time? Song Chuyi cursed silently, that old scoundrel and old rascal, he just likes to watch other people's families start fires, and then try to take advantage of the situation.

  Song Chu lowered her head, thought for a while, but still suppressed the urge to go and confirm.

  The room was quiet, Song Chu sat on his knees in front of the table, his ears slightly moving, as if he heard horseshoes outside and the sound was getting closer.

  After a moment, a maid came hurrying in to report, " Envoy, General Gong Sun requests an audience."

  Song Chu hesitated for a moment, General Gongsun, wouldn't you be the same Gongsun Valley who was shot by an arrow in the mountains? Thinking of this, she said, "Please come in, General."

  Having said that, he suddenly remembered something interesting and got up to welcome him.

  A moment later, the light at the door dimmed, and a man wearing silver armor walked in. It was indeed Gong Sun Valley!

  "Does General Gong Sun still remember me?" Song Chu asked with a smile

  Gongsun Valley was taken aback and it wasn't until then that he truly laid eyes on Song Chu for the first time.

  After all, at that time Song Chu was in a mess, her hair covering half of her face.

  After a moment of recognition, Gong Sun Valley suddenly remembered and exclaimed in surprise, "It's Daoist Huai Jin!"

  "Not bad, General is still remembered in the lower position." Song initially bowed his hands and asked him to sit down before he could speak, and asked before he could speak, "Is the noble son of your country, Ke, Zhi Lou?"

  Is it really that important for Zhao Yi Lou to ask repeatedly, and is there something unusual about her inquiries?

  Gongsun Gu's face turned red with rage, and he said in a loud voice, "That's right! But I don't know who wrote this absurd and unreasonable letter."

  Song Chu smiled wryly and said, "Indeed, I am inferior and beneath you..."

  "Gongsun Yu was surprised and said, 'Sir, you actually know Gongzi Ke?'"

  At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, a man was filled with evil intentions, but his face showed great distress. He slapped his thigh and sighed, "Not only did I know him, but General also met Ai, who was that young man who was with me at that time. However, he disappeared later and there was no news from him. It's a pity that I didn't know he was the son of Zhao Guo!"

  This is where Song ChuYi's regret lies, she knew that Zhao YiLou was the prince of Zhao State, but couldn't figure out his whereabouts, this sentence clearly pierced GongSunGu's sore spot.

  If Gong Sun Valley had known that it was Prince Ke at the time, he would have definitely made up for his defeat in that battle after bringing him back to the country! If he had brought Prince Ke back, there wouldn't be such a situation today! At that time, it was clearly within reach, but he missed it!

  Gongsun Gu was struck too heavily and for a moment forgot his original intention.

  Although he didn't know the details, he roughly understood what was going on and couldn't help but stifle a laugh as he watched Song Chu anger others. How could he be so comfortable? Moreover, General Gong Sun said that her words were unreasonable and feared that she would suffer retribution.
